There is a lot to see on the aircraft carrier. We were there for 5 hours. The audio guide and map are available in German. Be sure to watch the film first, and then immediately take the tour. It's worth arriving between 10:00 and 10:30 AM.

We had such a fun time on this whale watching tour! The staff was very professional and our marine biologist guide was very knowledgeable about the sea lions, dolphins, and whale we saw. The boat was not crowded and they had plenty of life jackets. I would do this tour again in the future.

Great tour and a very enjoyable experience. Our guide Nora was wonderful. She took us to many interesting places, talked with us throughout the trip, and even helped us take photos. At the end of the tour, she kindly dropped us off at our hotel, which was very convenient. Highly recommended!

What to know before visiting San Diego

Quick San Diego snapshot and top things to do

San Diego’s Klook bookings are dominated by family-friendly attractions: zoos and aquariums lead the way, followed by theme parks, museums, attraction passes and tours. Demand rises and falls through the year, with a clear late-spring high and quieter months towards the end of the year.

Best months to visit and how prices move

Klook booking data shows demand peaks in May and drops to its lowest in November; the busiest period is in May while the quietest is in November. Prices don’t follow demand exactly: historically September is the priciest month on Klook while October has typically been the cheapest, and overall prices swing noticeably between those months. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, consider visiting in October or November; if you’re after the peak-season atmosphere and livelier attractions, May is the time to go.

Tips for travellers from Australia

Most experiences in San Diego can be booked with short notice — Klook’s typical lead time is only about a day, though some travellers book earlier. If you’re travelling for a short trip, that flexibility makes it easy to plan on the fly; if you’re visiting in May (the peak month) consider booking a few days ahead to secure popular time slots. Use Klook to compare passes and combination tickets for zoos, theme parks and museums to simplify planning.
